>>21088901Where I see a lot of people pushing for the Volcano-Back final evo I was convinced that I wanted a 'flatter' design after someone brought up the idea of movement.
Stained glass fins are pretty nice, but I would rather like to see stained glass spikes that 'light up' because of it's internal fiery body heat.
These spikes play a large role into the movement of this pokemon because I see it rolling up into a ball and wrecking through the lands King Dodongo/Goron style. The spikes help it gain traction, and rolling through the dunes of sands helps collect it on its back so it's protective back never wears down.
Hell, even with legs it can play into
>>21086992 's pattern by basing the rolling movement on the Ouruburos which is the snake eating it's own tail.
Going with the rolling thing it can learn moves that other fire starters have not been able to learn. Obvious ones being Rollout and Flame Wheel, but also something more obscure like Steamroller.
